Those testimonials are hilarious, I love that kind of self-deprecating humor (or the confidence to stand up to critics).

I think OP made it pretty clear it’s a hypothetical question
It already happened for a brief period of time many years ago
That means the answer to the question would be 2? After two plays you have about 6 minutes of entertainment which are worth $1.
Btw I do the same entertainment budget calculations (as well as “what is my free time worth”)
Instead they decided to ignore your comment and rile up people in sibling comments…
Sadly this comes as no (big) surprise. Sharing the fate with many great projects from small dev teams, Nova was dead the moment it was bought up.
Both were a thing in discussions many years ago. That’s why they became a meme.
But since then it’s basically only used ironically because people quickly noticed they’re a meme.
A community does not exist by itself. It is formed by its members, and if new members join, the community changes.
Old members might not like that (» eternal september), but “don’t force it into something that it’s not” is simply not the way this works…
That really sounds absurd. Both the idea itself and the fact that they somehow screwed up the execution of such a simple thing that much.
Yeah, it’s a common fallacy in appliance brand discussions: “my grandma has a <brand> and it still works! You should buy one, too!”. First of all it’s survivorship bias and almost always the quality has degraded a lot in the past decades (greed and consumers that don’t want to pay the price for reliable appliances).
Amazing, I’ve missed that 🤦
That seems like an overly tedious way of entering your preferences. Why can’t I just rank a handful of factors (cheap housing, beaches, climate, politics, diversity) and give them some weight?
You could even make the ranking of the factors in the current style (“snowy winters are [much] more important than beaches”). That would reduce the cognitive load of comparing 3 vs 3 properties many times in a row.
Who said that they eliminate competition that’s way behind technologically? They haven’t eliminated us, so apparently they don’t. But it seems plausible that they eliminate civilizations that are on the verge of becoming dangerous - still a great filter, but probably a bit further in the future.
There’s another layer to it: it’s a meme about AI
Thanks for the insight! I just hope that Porto and Lisbon don’t turn into another Paris or Rome…
That’s not really how he himself describes it. His wife became a Christian and after going to church with her he wanted to investigate the backgrounds - he didn’t want to disprove Christianity and was quite open-minded instead:
She invited me to a church, where I heard the Gospel explained in a way I could understand it. While I didn’t believe it, I realized that if it were true, it would have big implications for my life. So I decided to use my journalism experience and legal expertise (at the time, I was legal editor of The Chicago Tribune) to investigate whether there was any credibility to Christianity or any other faith system.
It really is sad. For more than 25 years I’ve been visiting Portugal (so yes, I’m part of the problem…) and every year it gets a bit worse: endless new hotels destroying the beautiful views of the cliffs, villages mostly catering the needs of tourists, …
I just wish I hadn’t told everyone how amazing it is in Portugal 🥲
I absolutely loved that game until it got too hard for me or I got too anxious about losing my souls (putting me in an even worse position from them on). Probably also about 70% in.
Sadly I played it on Switch, otherwise I would have used some kind of mod to lower the difficulty. Doing that would have sucked, but never finishing the game sucks even more…
Beware! This app is an entry drug and soon you might find yourself being heavily invested in OSM, editing more complex data in other apps or on your computer…
I mean it’s just copy and paste boilerplate and has nothing to do with the problem so I think it’s pretty accurate…
